Question 61-16(1): Stanton Territorial Health Authority Human Resource Plan

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In my statement earlier, I referenced the comprehensive human resources plan for Stanton Territorial Health Authority and the fact that it was supposed to be completed in the summer of 2007. My question is addressed to the Minister of Human Resources. I would want the Minister to please advise me as to the status of this particular human resource plan. Thank you.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. The honourable Minister of Human Resources, Mr. Bob McLeod.

Return To Question 61-16(1): Stanton Territorial Health Authority Human Resource Plan

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am pleased to report that the preparation of the Stanton human resource plan is well underway. Two surveys have been conducted since the human resource committee was formed in February of 2007. Data from both surveys have been summarized and have been released to all Stanton employees as of October 4th. A staffing working group has been formed. A staff forum was held on November 9, 2007, in order to provide feedback on the results. We are taking that data and the feedback and are working on developing a human resource plan. Thank you.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Supplementary, Ms. Bisaro.

Supplementary To Question 61-16(1): Stanton Territorial Health Authority Human Resource Plan

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the information from the Minister. That is more than we had previously. But I would like to ask the Minister when the Standing Committee on Social Programs can expect to receive this report.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Mr. McLeod.

Further Return To Question 61-16(1): Stanton Territorial Health Authority Human Resource Plan

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We are working towards having a draft prepared by January 2008. Thank you.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Supplementary, Ms. Bisaro.

Supplementary To Question 61-16(1): Stanton Territorial Health Authority Human Resource Plan

Thank you again. I would like to ask the Minister, at this point now that the information from the surveys has been accumulated and drafted into some sort of an initial report, whether or not and when the Standing Committee on Social Programs can receive copies of the surveys which were sent out.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Mr. McLeod.

Further Return To Question 61-16(1): Stanton Territorial Health Authority Human Resource Plan

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I understood that this information has been sent out to all Stanton employees. I am not sure whether that means it is public information. I think I will probably have to get some authorization from the HR committee and, once I get that, I am sure I can share it with the standing committee. Thank you.
